Practice result
Project results for the first quarter of 2021:
more than 28 regions held online conferences as part of the Developing Together project, where expert teachers shared their experiences on the use of digital and distance learning technologies in the implementation of preschool education programs
more than 13,500 preschool teachers participated in practice-oriented activities of the project and gained access to educational resources of the roboborik.com platform
about 300 participants of the Educator’s Contest, 18 winners
10 Innovation Platforms
more than 2,000 participants in the Winter Brain Marathon Olympics from more than 60 regions of Russia
The course «Become a Student with Roboborik» was tested in 19 educational organizations; 291 children, 273 teachers, and 69 parents took part in the course.
The platform’s educational resources are placed in the federal marketplace https://elducation.ru/, Education Navigator https://edu.asi.ru/
Participating teachers improved their ICT competence: within the project they were able to use digital educational resources to solve different problems at all stages of the lesson in all educational areas, to organize integrated learning, and to build individual educational pathways. In addition, specialists have discovered new tools for monitoring knowledge (thanks to interactive course services that generate statistics and demonstrate children’s results) and the use of distance technology (thanks to the ability to assign resources for lessons with parents at home).
When using the resources of the Roboborik platform, all teachers noted positive changes in the children: an increased interest in educational activities and higher involvement in the work, the formation of independence and confidence in themselves and their actions when performing educational tasks, and, as a consequence, good results in personal and intellectual development. Children learned how to work in a digital learning environment and how to use gadgets to gain knowledge.
